Video Summary

In this video, three faculty members discuss their career development strategies from residency to practice. They provide insight into the challenges they faced and the strategies they used to overcome them. One faculty member started their own musculoskeletal practice, another started an inpatient directorship within a non-academic hospital, and the third is pursuing a career as a clinician scientist at an academic institution. <br /><br />Some of the key points discussed include the importance of setting career goals and developing a career plan early on, the value of mentorship and seeking out mentors who can provide guidance and support, the benefits of diversifying your skills and pursuing opportunities that align with your interests, and the importance of balancing personal and professional goals. The speakers also emphasize the need to be adaptable and open to new opportunities, while also being selective and saying no to opportunities that don't align with your long-term goals. Finally, they highlight the importance of self-reflection and regularly reassessing your goals and progress to ensure you are on the right path.
